Connecting the public with policing

Lionel Barnard, Chairman
Welcome to the Sussex Police Authority website. The site explains the different elements of our work, provides up to date information about our policies and plans and brings you the latest news from the Authority. You can also download many of our documents and papers.
Sussex Police Authority is an independent body which oversees Sussex Police. The Authority consults across Sussex to find out people's views about policing and takes these into account when setting its budget and objectives.
Please visit us regularly to find out what is going on and to take part in our various consultation exercises which take place throughout the year or click here to contact us.
Sussex Police Authority meetings are web cast using facilities provided by East Sussex County Council.
